Comment on Proprietary Software Is Often Malwareparent

Comments

GNU seems to define anything that works against the interests of the user as malware. That's a broad but by no means crazy definition, and it it interesting that a lot of "legitimate" proprietary software is malware by that definition.

And, in this case, they seem to be using an even narrower definition than that. The things listed on this page are considerably worse than just using the wrong license.
